There were a number of questions that were previously not available to learners, and now the CLLT poses all of those questions. So it\u2019s a wider variety of road signs, and we now test applicants on all of those,\u201d explained Charlton Majiedt, Acting Director of Transport Administration and Licensing at the Western Cape Mobility Department.<\/p>\n<p>The department said the new system is already reducingturnaround times, as tests are marked instantly, allowing centres to process more applicants each day.<\/p>\n<p>While early pass rates dipped as users adjusted to the technology, Majiedt said results are improving.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust like with any new system, we have people adapting to it, so we\u2019ve had lower pass rates. However, we\u2019ve seen those pass rates start to increase, and we hope that in the new year we will see even greater improvements,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">South-Africa<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
